6. How do I enable the energy saving function?
Go to 'My Computer' and select 'Control Panel' followed by "Monitor Control". Select "All
default selection" and choose your Philips monitor model from the default driver list. Plug
and Play will automatically enable the EPA tick box for you. In DOS or Windows 3.1, you
must first make sure your PC supports power saving.
7. What is refresh rate?
"Refresh rate" describes the number of times an entire screen is vertically scanned each
second. In other words: If a monitor's refresh rate is 85 Hz, its screen is refreshed - or
vertically scanned - 85 times per second. A higher refresh rate means better image
stability and less flicker. A high refresh rate helps users who work long hours in front of a
monitor avoid eye fatigue and stress. To change the refresh rate, go into "Start/Settings /
Control Pannel / Display / Properties / Setting/Advance/Adaptor" Windows settings of the
computer, the monitor will automatically adjust itself to the video card.
